ADOPT Funding

In this week's Kite Podcast, Ben Eagle is joined by Wallace Currie, ADOPT Coordinator and Knowledge Exchange Manager at the UK AgriTech Centre, farmer and current ADOPT funding beneficiary Will Tuer, and podcast producer Becki Reay to discuss how ADOPT funding is helping farmers tackle real on-farm challenges through innovation and collaboration. With the latest funding round open until 7 October, Wallace explains how the scheme works, who can apply and the support available to farmers looking to develop and trial new ideas. Will shares his experience of securing ADOPT funding through his CLEAN DAIRY project, which focuses on improving energy monitoring and efficiency on dairy farms, and discusses the opportunities the programme creates for farmers to test practical solutions within their own businesses. The conversation explores the benefits of collaborative, farmer-led innovation and offers advice for anyone considering an application. As always, Chris Walkland joins the team with his latest milk market update, including a warning that farmers may need to temper their expectations on milk prices in the coming months.
